Stefan is an aspiring male model seeking magazine publication for editorial shoots and booked 2 sessions to broaden his portfolio.The first shoot concentrated on some arty images with chiffon and props, physique shots with the studio tyres and smoke and the second shoot was based more around moody black and white portraits and upbeat and colourful fashion shots.
Portfolio Shoot with fitness model Dexter
Dexter got in contact to arrange an underwear, fitness and physique shoot to boost his male modelling portfolio. We covered a range of themes from portrait through topless and underwear to some more revealing physique shots to give him a great choice of images to use for his online and agency portfolios.
Gothic Latex and Glamour shoot with Lauren
Lauren booked a shoot to spice her port up with some alt fashion, gothic and glamour shots. We created some fantasy gothic images using a mini stage set that I constructed in the studio and moved on to some retro glamour shots. Lauren supplied some great costumes and we ended up with some amazing images.
Another Retro, Surreal, Creative Shoot with Darren
Darren and I had been planning a return shoot at Antwerp Mansion in Manchester for some time and finally managed to arrange a date. The venue is a deliberately run-down Victorian mansion that has had a spell as a nightclub in recent years. The space is full of weird and characterful areas. We chose the dilapidated grand piano to create a scenario involving a virtuoso pianist in ‘film noir’ style, then moved on to some surreal images in front of one of the windows and some dark, surreal ideas in the cellar!

Actor headshots for Harley
Actor and model Harley got in touch to update his port with some portraits, headshots and costume shots using the props and outfits we have in our studio. We started with some gritty black and white portraits and then progressed onto a Dickensian/cosplay theme with top hat and tuxedo and ended the shoot with a sports and casual theme.
Robin Hood shoot with Ciaron – The Bard
Ciaron booked another shoot to follow on from our previous ‘Johnny Depp’ and Medieval Knight themes. This time we chose the location of Burrs park in Bury as Sherwood Forest. Ciaron provided a full costume including bow, arrows, long sword, hooded jerkin and breaches and after a short walk beside the river Irwell, we found a wooded bank with many ancient oaks to provide an atmospheric backdrop, giving the resulting images an appropriate mythic feel.
Post lockdown shoot with new male model Matthew
New and talented model Matthew needed some studio images for his portfolio. Our shoot covered headshots, portraits, some topless and underwear shots and a White Russian hat….
Surreal apocalyptic shoot at Antwerp Mansion with actor and model Darren
Darren is a very dedicated and versatile model and actor who I have worked with on a number of occasions. He owns an extensive personal wardrobe as well as a huge variety of props that he can supply to give extra authenticity and excitement to any shoot. We booked a morning at Antwerp mansions, a dedicated run-down and urban photography space in Rusholme, Manchester. Using the grungy and dilapidated interior, we worked on several scenarios to produce some surreal, steampunk, alternative and sci-fi shots.
